Custom FAQ
Tips for Handwriting
- Use a thick, dark marker on blank paper for the best results.
- Bold lines are ideal for kids’ handwriting or drawings.
- Light or fine lines (like from a pen or pencil) can be harder to transfer, but I’m happy to touch them up if needed—especially for sentimental pieces like old cards or recipes.
- Simple designs work best since the glaze dries quickly (in about 30 seconds).
- If your design has more than 15 lines, I’ll review it to make sure it’s doable.
- Small details (like tiny dots or eyes) can be unpredictable due to how glaze behaves. I use wax resist with a toothpick, but some bleeding might occur—please keep this in mind when placing your order.
If you’re unsure about your design, feel free to message me anytime!
Turnaround Time
- Your custom mug will be ready within 1–3 weeks after you approve the proof.
- I’ll usually send you the proof within a week of receiving your design.
Submitting Your Design
-
Once you’ve placed your order, send a photo of your handwriting or drawing via:
- Instagram (preferred)

- Be sure to include your order number!
- You can submit your design right after ordering or whenever you’re ready.
Additional Notes
- Quantities are limited so I recommend being online at exact time of launch for best chance of securing a custom spot.
- Every mug is lovingly handmade on the pottery wheel, meaning no two are exactly alike. Slight size variations, glaze drips, or uneven rims are part of their charm and uniqueness.
- Refunds are only available if there’s an error on our end.
